About this map

The Rangely Oil Field dominates the southern landscape of this 1979 survey, indicating the significant petroleum economy of Rio Blanco County during the late 1970s. The town of Rangely serves as a central hub, home to Colorado Northwestern Community College and the Rangely Airport. To the north, the terrain transitions into the protected wilderness of Dinosaur National Monument, while major geological features like Blue Mountain, the Danforth Hills, and Cathedral Bluffs define the high-desert horizon.
